The city of Westbrook's pleasant small-town style and appearance have been linked for more than a century to the Maine paper and wood pulp industry. Today Sappi International manufactures a wide range of products, while nearby Calpine Industries has a huge state-of-the-art natural gas fired power plant supplying electricity to more than 500,000 homes and businesses in southern Maine. Nestled on the banks of the Presumpscot River, which has powered many Maine paper mills over the decades, today the River is the site of a lovely waterfront park, with the Saccarappa Falls right in the middle of town. Incorporated in 1891, the city is named for an early settler, Col. Thomas Westbrook.
